Captain Linden, the superintend
ent of the police of Philadelphia, was
sworn Into office on Saturday. In ad
dressing his lieutenants he told tbem
that he was no specchmaker; that ac
tions, and not talk are wanted. "The
city expects us to do our whole duty as
officers," and when presented with
his new club he said, "I hope I may
never have occasion to use it, especial
ly on an officer." We predict that tho
police department, under our old, tried
friend, Captain Linden, will be u suc
cess. The cold wave that arrived here
Saturday night was most welcome to
the host of sick people, and to those

Rov. Powlok's Admonition In on
Interesting Sormon to Hla Con
gregation Sunday to "Prepare
to Moot Thy God."
Tho sormon on Sunday evening At thn
Methodist Episcopal church was suited to
tho beginning of tho new year. Tko text
was from AmosIV-12i "Prepare to meet
thy God." Oreat preparations aro made
to rocoivo earth's great ones. When ex'
President Qrant returnod from bis tour
around tho world all Philadelphia and the
surrounding territory turned out in honor
of tho occasion. But when tho Blessed,
and onl Volenti'' tho King of Kings,
and the Lord of lord's appeals u; rcaos-
nition, the giddy multitudes are heedless.
Ono of the strongest proofs of tho Bible
doctrine of moral depravity is found in the
genoral religious indifferonco which char
acterizes society. Even among theoretical
bclicverj thoro is a startling amount oi
practical atheism, Men so often deny in
their life what they hold lu thoir creed
The beginning of a now jear is a good
timo to begin the needful preparation to
meet our Ood. As wo stand upon its
threshold and think of its unknown posei
bilities and contingencies, the admonition
is doubly impressive. Many in tho largo
congregation will be in eternity beforo tho
closo of tho year, henco all should bo pre
pared. Two thoughts wore dwelt upon
with emphasis, First, moot Him, wo must
It Is appointed unto ail mon once to die
and after this the judgment. Wo must all
appear before the judgment seat of Christ,
for there shall bo a resurrection both of the
just and tho unjust. This truth is tho
moral balancewhoel of society. However
men may ignoro it in hoaltb, whon sickness
comos and death stares men in tho face
they aro made to feel as never beforo, that
thoy are accountablo creatures and the
gospel affords their only hope. Worldli
ness and infidelity may do for men when
they aro wol) and strong, but overy min
ister receives calls for holp from such cases
whon thejjeome to die, Tho "ago of rea
son" affordod no comfort to Its author upon
his death bed. Tho second thought waa
that some spocial preparation is nocossary,
Men arejdrifting along with tbo current
and expecting some how or other to drift
at lust into heaven but they will bo disp
piintod. JN o man oxpocts when pay day
comes to fill his pockets if ho has done no
work, but many expect in tho day of final
account to got an everlasting fortuno who
hnvo made no effort to win it Mon know
that nothing worth having can be gotten in
this world without effort and thoy ought to
know that tho samo is tru i in spiritual
things. Ask, seek, knock, strivo, agonize,
ire the scriptural terms which represent
tbo thought aud intolligenco and effort re
quired on tho, part of man to prepare to
meet his God. This work is commenced
in repentance and conversion, but must
bo continued throughout lifo. "Tho work
of faith will not bo dono, till thou obtain
tho crown." Jesus, tho sinner's friend.will
forgivo the past and provide for tho future
if wo will do our part. "Thon prepare to
meot thy Uod." At tho close of tho ser
mon a prayer meeting followed, at which
ono person bowed at the altar for prayer.
Services will continue overy night during
tho week.

The Inquest Hold Saturday After
noon After Toomoy Was Put
Under $2,000 Bail by tho
Pottsvillo Court.
After tho court at Pottsvillo fixed the
amount of bail for Constable J ere. Toomoy,
of town, to furnish for his appoaranco at

sistance of Deputy Coroner Ilreunan and
tho following jury : William Derr, James
Mclfugh, Michael Faddeu, Thomas Tosh,
Fred. V. Hoieenbergor and Thomas

Lawyer Seltzer was present and said he

District Attorney.
Tho hearing vvs not an extondod one
and the jury did not requ.: much timo to
frame a
VERDICT VERY FAVORABLE
to the constable. The verdict was :
"That tho said Michael Bobbin camo to
his death bv a pistol wound inflicted at tho
hands of officer J. Toomoy while in the
dischargo ol his official duties by trying to
escape arrest, and we exonerate Toomoy
from all censuro."
Policemen Edward Williams and D. J.
Conners were examined. Thoy woro
around tho corner from tho sccnooftho
shooting and heard three, or, porhaps four
shots, but did not seo tho shootiDg. Upon
hearing the shots, which made a muffled
sound, they ran into Joe Wythe's sa'oou,
at tho corner of Oak stroot and Pear alley,
but could learn npthing. Tho muffled
report led them to boliovo tbo shooting had
taken piuco in tho saloon. Thoy sub
sequently learned the wounded man was in
the lockup. Tbo officers swore they

only that they heard tho shots, saw tho
wounded man in tho lockup and heard
from street talk that Toomoy shot tho
man.
Joo Pochulis, it friond of tho decoased,
waa quite anxious to tell his story, lib
knew nothing of the case only what ho
had loarnod from Bobbin and Toomey.
Bobbin, the deceased, said howassurohe
would die. The witness had a talk with
Toomey and the latter said
"i didn't want to shoot
him in tho baek, I just wanted to shot him
in tho log, so ho would fall down and I
could catch him, but it was dark and I
struck him in the back Toomey also said,
tho witness testified, that Bobbins asked
leave to step into the alley for a moment
itnd ho let him do so. "Then I saw him
go oil' and I said 'stop 1' and ho didn't, I
fired once i and then bo ran
'AND I RAN AND FIRED ;
and I fired three timos." Whon questioned
as to theproyiousrolations between Toomey
and Bjbbins, the witness said he knew ot
no fooling batwoon them. Ho had seen
them drinking together many times, The
witness created considerable mirth when
telling of his own previous relations with
Ojnstable Toomey.
"How long havo you known Toomoy ?'
ho was aikod.
"Sinco tho strike."
"Did Jerry over arrest you ?'
"O, jos."
"How many times?"
"I can't toll. Ho arrost mo rigU away,
as soon as ho see me go drunk. Sometimes
mysolf me in office and start to talk to
Squire and bo sond mo to lockup. Same
all tbo time. I pay him all tho timo. I
good customor here."
Dr. J. S. Ollon was tho noxt witness
and told of bis treatment of the deceased
from December 8 to 21. Ho said ho found
tho noxt day that thn man coughed fre
quently and catarrhal pneumonia ulti
mately developed.
John Bobbin, brother of tho deceased,
sworo ho was 18 yoars of ago ; that the
docoased was a single man 28 yoars of ago.
The witness said he saw bis brother allvo at
the Minors' Hospital on Christmas Day.
When asked by tho Coroner what tho
deceased said tbo witness answorod through
tho interpreter, "Ho said
do not dive up ran cash.
for he has gono out of his bands for noth
ing." The witness also testified that his
brother told him Toomoy shot him.
Uoronor (Juldin thon toitlflod to tho nott

Paul Summa'a Exciting Timo at
Kingston.
Paul Summa who, until recently, kept a
saloon on South Main streot, in this town,
had an oxciting timo at his new place in
Kingston, Saturday mornirg. At an early
hour two strangers entered tho saloon and
ordered drinks. Having been served tho
strangers drow revolvors and ordered Mr.
Summa out of doors. Being unarmed, ho
went. The bartender was then ordoioJ
into the cellar and locked up thoro.
Thoy thon drove tl e occupants of thj
pool room into tho stroot. ' L-jcking thom
eelves in tho bnr room, thoy called tho wifo
of the proprietor from tho living apart
monts back of tho saloon, and compelled
her at tho point of a rovolvor to bring them
liquor and cigars from tho bar, tbey oc
cupying seats at a table. They did not
offer her any violenco, but insisted on their
demands boing complied with promptly.
When they bad absorbod all tho liquor
thoy wanted tbey unlocked tho front door
ai-rt went out.
In tho meantirao tho proprietor had se
cured a warrant and placed il in tho hands
of an officer, but when they came back for
the men thoy had departed, leaving Mr3.
Summa in a state of collapse. Tho ruffians
woro traced to a crowdod ball room and au
attompt made to arrest thorn but they pull
ed their guns, and, avoiding officers and
spectators with threats of murder if they
were interfered with, backed out of the
room and into tho darkness of tho nl&ut
where they wero lost sight of. O-Hcers
